Retractable speed gates
Fast, compact lanes for commercial foyers, gyms, offices, and venues where authorised users need to move through quickly without heavy visual impact.

Speed gates for fast, polished pedestrian access control
Rapid supplies, installs, repairs, and integrates speed gates for lobbies, commercial buildings, gyms, venues, schools, strata sites, and secure facilities. We help select the right lane style, barrier height, reader setup, safety behaviour, and anti-tailgating controls for the way people move through the entry.
Speed gate options
Choose the speed gate around flow, security, and fitout
Speed gates are a better fit than full-height turnstiles when the entry needs fast movement, a refined look, and integration with electronic access control without making the lobby feel heavy or industrial.
Swing speed gates
Swinging glass barriers for premium lobby environments, wider accessible lanes, visitor access, and controlled pedestrian flow.
Higher-security speed gates
Taller glass and stronger detection options for sites that need better tailgating control while keeping the entry polished and efficient.
Commercial scope and cost
Specify the complete speed gate entry, not only the cabinets
A useful speed gate proposal covers the physical lanes, site works, credentials, detection, accessibility, emergency behaviour, software integration, commissioning, and ongoing support. Those choices determine both performance and cost.
Supply and installation
Specify complete speed gate lanes around opening widths, accessible passage, reader positions, cabling, power, finishes, commissioning, and handover.
Speed gate cost factors
Lane count, cabinet finish, glass height, accessible lane width, credential readers, detection, software integration, freight, and site works all affect the installed cost.
Automatic and higher-security options
Compare retractable or swing barriers, taller glass, anti-tailgating detection, alarm behaviour, and supervised response around the site risk and presentation brief.
Access control integration
Connect speed gates with card, fob, QR, mobile, biometric, visitor, lift, alarm, CCTV, and building access systems so permissions and events stay coordinated.
Use cases
Built for busy entries where speed and presentation both matter
Speed gates help facility managers, building managers, gyms, venues, and secure workplaces control pedestrian access without slowing every authorised person at the front door.
Office and strata lobbies
Manage tenant, staff, contractor, and visitor movement through shared entries and lift lobby areas.
Gyms, clubs, and venues
Support fast member entry, ticket validation, QR credentials, and high-volume pedestrian movement.
Facilities and secure workplaces
Improve entry records, reduce casual tailgating, and connect entry lanes with broader access control.
Selection and integration
Plan the lane before choosing the barrier
Rapid checks the entry width, flow pattern, accessible access requirements, reader locations, user credentials, safety behaviour, and service access before recommending a speed gate configuration.
Lane width, accessible entry requirements, expected traffic volume, and entry queue behaviour
Retractable, swing, or taller glass barrier style based on risk, presentation, and site layout
Card, fob, QR, mobile, biometric, visitor, and concealed reader mounting options
Anti-tailgating detection, safety sensors, emergency release, fire interface, and power-loss behaviour
Related systems
Connect the speed gate with the wider entry plan
Pedestrian access control
Plan speed gates alongside doors, barriers, credentials, accessible routes, visitor flow, and emergency behaviour.
Turnstiles
Compare speed gates with waist-height and full-height turnstiles when physical resistance or outdoor use matters more than lobby presentation.
Access control systems
Coordinate readers, permissions, software, reporting, intercoms, CCTV, and other building integrations.
